Chapter 74 - Don't Be So Superstitious ("Ignore
me today and I won't even give you the time of day
tomorrow.") (2)

Xu Lisa purposefully slowed down her pace and
walked at the very end by herself. Low and behold,
she saw Chang Yuqi run up to the director, nodded,
bowed, and said, "Director, I am for sure staying for part II. I look forward to working together with you again."

The director hasn't been very nice to her ever
since she had openly picked on Xu Lisa with
no regards to her own image. He had been saying
from time to time that he needed her agent Zhang Han to come and straighten her out. Chang Yuqi's
reputation dropped and her jobs in the future looked grim. Obviously, she wanted to try and hold onto "Blossoming Us", which just might be her life-saving straw.

The director, on the other hand, was still blue from
being turned down by Xu Lisa. Hearing Chang Yuqi's words, he only tilted his head a bit and
casted her a look before he said, almost as if he
said with a hint of self-mockery and bitter smile,
"In order to keep Xu Lisa, the production team
probably would have to spend every penny to hire
her just to keep this series. I'm not sure if we will
have money left over to hire you."

Having heard that, Chang Yuqi felt as though she
was slapped in the face. Stunned, she stopped walking and stood where she was.

Xu Lisa was pleased to hear that She snickered
and walked around Chang Yuqi.

At that very moment, someone exited a car from a
parking lot nearby and started walking toward Xu Lisa. Xu Lisa take a look from afar and it was
Butler Lin of the Mu's.

Butler Lin was an old lady and not as gossipy as Aunt Hu She usually just came and go quietly and it was easy to forget that she was even there.

The only reason that Xu Lisa remembered her
was because Butler Lin was tidying up the offerings and incense burner when she walked passed the Mu's family hall of worship on her way to Mu Sehun.

Xu Lisa had heard Mu Jungkook mentioning it once
that the old madam was in the habit of worshipping
buddha. As Butler Lin was the one taking care of the buddha hall personally, Xu Lisa gathered that this butler has the same habit as the old madam.

She had planned to get close to the old madam based
on her on her chanting and vegetarian habit, now that Butler Lin came on her own, it's even better for her.

Before Butler Lin has even said a word, Xu Lisa
walked up to her quickly and greeted her in a
friendly manner, "Hi, how are you doing?"

"Hi, Miss Xu. We meet again." Even when she was
outside of the Mu's residence, she was still dressed
very properly. She was older in age but, even so, she didn't seem to have any extra weight on her in her suit. She was carrying a large bag in her left hand so she reached out her right to shake hand with Xu Lisa. "The old madam has asked me to come look for you and thank you."

Exactly how she had planned. Xu Lisa smiled and
asked, "Did Sehun get better?"

The butler was a little surprised but nodded
immediately. "The doctor sent by Miss Xu was
miraculous. Second Young Master had some herbs
that night and immediately gotten much better. He even
had two bowls of rice. He had been getting better and better these last couple of days and can probably return to work tomorrow."

Xu Lisa nodded politely and said, "That's good to
hear."

"The old madam had me bring these gifts to you
to show her appreciation," said the butler as she
handed the bag into her toward Xu Lisa. "Please
accept her token of appreciation."

Xu Lisa took the over the white bag and looked.
Printed on the outside of the beg was a signature in
english script - "Tianna Chou". Xu Lisa's eyes
widened in surprise.

She didn't even need to open the bag to know that it
was a very fancy dress inside.... Did everyone at the Mu's had such high requirement for their clothing?

This one in her hand was the creme de crops of the Tianna Chou
